Should I Sell Out? Options

[914Pro]

First off I'm 17 and my 914 is my first car that I worked day in and day out at a minimum wage job to pay for. But lately I have been beginning to realize that this is not a daily driver car. So here is the problem. I need a daily driver but I love my car. She is cherry red and turns heads everywhere we go. The question is will I regret getting rid of it when I hit my midlife crisis? This is my baby and tears come to my eyes when I think of getting rid of it but its not cheap and it keeps my wallet constantly empty. So I thought who better to ask than the one group of people that understands what its like. Should I suffer through it and know that in the long run keeping it is best or sell it and buy something a little more practical?

Help Please!!

Thanks for all the help guys. The more I think about it the more attached I become. Luckily I do have a garage I can park it in and since its summer time in KS maybe I'll pick up a cheap motorcycle and work on the 914 when I have some spare cash. I'll be proud to sit my kids down someday (in the very distant future) and tell them the struggle of how I had to walk uphill both ways in the snow to my job that paid next to nothing for my first car until I could afford to do it justice. So thanks again! Its nice to have a group who all understand what its like and have more experience than me to help along the way.
